Is Cold Tingling And Numbness On Face, Neck And Arm Serious?
Hello, I am having some concerns because I have been having what seems to be stroke symptoms. I tried researching and they say to consult a doctor even if the symptoms are mild. I am experiencing a cold tingling sensation and numbness on my face, neck, and arms. It is very persistent. I also get very dizzy when I stand up, and have trouble walking. I have a headache as well. My typing is even taking much effort. I may be tired or overreacting, but I am very concerned. Is there any way these symptoms are caused by something else, something not as serious? Please reply, and thank you for your help.
The symptoms you described can occur due to reduced blood supply to a part of the brain (stroke) or in its early stage. Also these can occur in a brain tumour. Hence it is necessary that you should consult a neurologist and get things sorted out with MRI or other investigations.
